Quick-burst Tester
The quick-burst tester is an off-line hydrotesting machine designed to test 54 inch long specimens of AWWA C900 and C905 tubes or tube joints to between 3.75 and 5 times their rated pressure, in order to certify the structural integrity of the material. It can test specimens that range from 12 to 36 inches in diameter.
This is a semi-automated machine, where the operator guides the sample through certain parts of the testing process.
